BT have been on at me to upgrade to their new Affinity broadband package which promises download speeds of up to 80 Mbs and upload speeds of up to 20 Mbs. BT installed it today, and boy, is it fast – I’m currently getting an actual download speed of 63.52 Mbs (earlier today this was as high as 75 Mbs) and 17.76 Mbs upload. Bearing in mind I used to get around 4 Mbs and 0.5 Mbs respectively you’ll understand why this is such an improvement.
I see and hear plenty of BT bashing but I’ve had ISDN and then Broadband here for the last 12 years and have had a very reliable service…it’s been down, briefly, 5 or 6 times in that time (worst outage was for 3 hours, usually it’s just half an hour here or there) which I consider quite acceptable.
